Depends on what you turn on when you "turn on defog." The air 
that is blown by the electric fan that you can switch on is  
NOT heated air. It is just outside air.

To turn on the defrost on a 72, push the little knobs just in front of 
the doors downward. This shuts off  the air to the front footwell and 
diverts it upward to the windshield.
